What a mess!

What were you doing at 3:00 am this morning?

You were probably sleeping. Am I right?

This is what Andrew and I were doing.

If you are thinking we are collecting water, you would be correct. A couple weeks ago we had a really windy day. The wind did some damage to the house. We lost some shingles and have some siding hanging loose. We contacted our rental agency, but I guess the owner of the house didn't want to fix it. 

Last night we had a thunderstorm come through. At 3am I woke up to find Andrew grabbing the cooler and trying to place it under the leak. 

See that bubble? That is where the leak is. 

Gross, isn't it?

It has done some damage. I need to do some restoration to my trunk. We have books drying out around the house.

These will all survive. No serious damage. I did have to get rid of an old Webster's dictionary. It was on the bottom of the pile and quite immersed in the water. I love books, especially the old ones, so it is sad to have to get rid of it,but there is just no saving it. We also lost the cute little tray that they were sitting on, on the trunk. That, also, just had too much water damage. I'll have to go to Hobby Lobby and see about finding a new one!

Now, we are just waiting for someone to come and fix our ceiling. It is still dripping behind me as I type this. 

What a night!
